Commissioning
9.1
Important notes
CAUTION
Serious risk of injury!
• Only specialist personnel with extensive knowledge in the areas of electrical engineering / drive technol-
ogy are allowed to install and commission the equipment.
• Check that all live connection points are protected against accidental contact.
• Never undo the electrical connections to the motor when it is live.
• The surface temperature of the motor can exceed 70 °C in operation. Check (measure) the temperature
of the motor. Wait until the motor has cooled down below 40 °C before touching it.
• Make sure that, even if the drive starts to move unintentionally, no danger can result for personnel or
machinery.
9.2
General commissioning
The procedure for commissioning is described as an example. A different method may be appropriate or
necessary, depending on the application of the equipment.
Once you have made sure that that the linear servomotor system of your application is properly mounted,
both mechanically and electrically, you can put your linear servomotor system into operation.
9.2.1
Parameterization
Depending on the components used (motor type, feedback system, servo drive) the following specific
parameters must be configured:
• the presence and switching mode of the limit switches (normally open / normally closed),
• the presence of an electromechanical brake,
• the type and interface,
• the motor type,
• the maximum continuous current,
• the maximum peak current,
• the switching resistance of the temperature sensor,
• safety settings,
• parameterization of the error reactions: tripping of the limit switches, switching off, overcurrent,
overspeed and emergency stop,
• commutation detection,
• parameters for the current controller (
current loop
),
• parameters for the speed controller (
speed loop
),
• parameters for the position controller (
position loop
),
